Abstract

P. cynomolgi B -rhesus monkey model of malarial infection has been used to study lipid infiltration in host tissues in early (exoerythrocytic) and late (chronic) stages of malaria infection. Histochemically we could demonstrate significant infiltration of neutral & total lipids in liver during the exoerythrocytic stage and in liver and kidney in the erythrocytic stage. The parasite used in the study closely resembles the human parasite P. vivax . It has a defined prepatent period, can be cyclically passaged with ease and non fatal in nature.
